Kinetics. Intelligence. A New Era of Performance.

Tim Podesta Creative is a performance, research, and training ecosystem shaped by the work of choreographer, performance scientist, author, and advocate Tim Podesta — a creator whose career spans movement, cognitive science, and artistic innovation.

Tim’s practice bridges international choreography, elite dancer development, and advanced research in performance intelligence. His background includes Exercise & Sport Science, First Class Honours, and current PhD research, with published work, keynote presentations, and advisory roles across arts, education, and human performance sectors.

As an author, guest speaker, and advocate, Tim is recognised for bringing complex ideas — from cognitive load to adaptation and creative decision-making — into practical, accessible frameworks for dancers, teachers, and industry leaders. His creative and scientific work has impacted communities globally, from large-scale productions and professional collaborations to youth development, outreach, and pathways for emerging artists.

Tim Podesta Creative brings these elements together into a connected ecosystem:
creative work, performance science, education, research, and the emerging PerformIQ platform — all built to explore how humans learn, adapt, and perform at their best.

We’re currently evolving.
As our reach grows across Australia and internationally, we’re refining our programs, expanding our offerings, and reimagining what performance, health, and creative education can look like.
